I have an intel 5300 as client and openwrt ath9k based router as AP. Some

Ubuntu 11.10 on a Thinkpad X200 with Intel 5300:

$ dmesg | grep -i deauthenticating | grep "local choice" | wc -l
44
$ uptime

$ dmesg | grep "local choice" | cut -d ] -f2- | sort | uniq -c
44 wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:21:91:dc:94:55 by local choice (reason=3)
56 wlan0: disassociating from 00:21:91:dc:94:55 by local choice (reason=3)

Not that this really creates problems for me, connection is quickly
restored and otherwise works fine.

For me it also mostly works fine, but sometimes I have to unload/reload the
iwlagn module to make things work again, and sometimes the wifi LED just turns
off and requires a reboot to get working again.

At least the 5300 stuff works much better in 3.0 than it did in 2.6.38.

I would suggest that both of you try the bleeding-edge compat-wireless, or the kernel from the wireless-testing git tree, before doing any debugging. I'm not involved in iwlagn development, but there have been a lot of changes since 3.0.
